[IP] Kids say/do the DARNDEST things!! :-)

Hi Everybody!
Well first let me start off to Ellen, by telling her that the
story about Zachary and his "ex-meter" was definitely a good one! I had just
signed on to send a Kid's are TOO FUNNY story about Steven when I read
this.....I can TOTALLY relate! :-)
Now, some of you I suppose are familiar with eBay, the
Auction site?? Well, I was looking in the Miscellaneous:Household:Health
section (as I usually do) when I came across an item description which read
DIABETES.....nothing else, just DIABETES......interested in what exactly was
being auctioned, I clicked on to view the page & item description. As I
scrolled down towards the description, I passed by the user ID which was
t-bone(with 2 numbers after it, which I won't post) ANYWAY, T-BONE has been
Stevie's nickname since he was a baby....not even a year old. (A
mispronunciation of his name by one of his brothers who was only 2 himself,
combined with his rather "meaty" build :-) Gave him that name which has
stayed with him for the past 9 years!) Well, I chuckled at the screen name
and called Stevie in to show him. I scrolled back up to the top of the screen
to surprise him and so he could see the DIABETES part, he came in and I said,
"Hey! You didn't tell me you were selling stuff on eBay!.....LOOK!" Then I
scrolled down to the name.....Well Steven didn't miss a beat, he just looked
over at me and said, "Oh, yeah! That's right! I'm selling my disease, I
don't want it anymore!" and we just laughed!!! It was one of those funny but
sad moments if you know what I mean, but definitely one I wanted to share
with those of you who have BTDT (been there, done that).
Take care and HEY! If we do figure out a way to sell his DIABETES on
eBay, we'll let you all know.....hey, with this bunch they'll probably have
to start a WHOLE NEW category....Miscellaneous:Health:Diseases:Diabetes!! :-)
Take care!
Kelly
